Sayonara, Sonya
I hardly knew you, but you just weren’t enough for me to consider keeping you on. I had high hopes for a modern, lightweight, mirrorless camera but your interface and outdated, unsupported features that made you so appealing to me just wasn’t cutting it. The…

After Polacon

Sonya
Say hello to Sonya, the Sony Alpha 6000 mirrorless digital camera. I just ordered her and she’ll arrive next week. This is my next, my first camera upgrade away from the bulkier, heavier, older DSLR’s. There are at least six advantages to mirrorless over DSLR:…

Dune + Foundation
In anticipation of the upcoming movie versions of these sci-fi classics this fall, I am reading both Dune and Foundation. Dune was written in the 1960’s and Foundation was released in the 1950’s so does their relevance stack up over time? Hopefully the theatrical releases…
